If we do not have profile file then what is the contents of /tmp/log.txt in these two cases : 

cat profile  2>&1  1>/tmp/log.txt 

cat profile  1>/tmp/log.txt 2>&1

If I execute temp.sh it is giving an error that not able to execute /var/temp1.sh  may be permission denied.

But if we see the permissions on both files, 777 is there.

Steps to execute it

cd /usr/

./temp.sh

/usr/temp.sh                              

#!/bin/bash

./temp1.sh

echo Hello

 

/var/temp1.sh

#!/bin/bash 

exit 1
